Introducing the F-150 Lightning Flash, A New Tech-Forward Model

Ford today is introducing a new F-150 Lightning model — F-150® Lightning® Flash™ — a tech-forward offering that brings together most of current customers’ favorite features under $70,000.

The F-150 Lightning Flash expands on the XLT model line by adding in-demand tech capabilities, including an extended-range battery, which has a targeted EPA-estimated range of 320 miles, available Ford BlueCruise1 hands-free highway driving, and a standard 15.5-inch touchscreen for seamless interactions and navigation.

The F-150 Lightning Flash customer values an electric vehicle powertrain and advanced tech features paired with a more accessible price point and the F-150’s proven ability to handle anything — whether it’s people, pets, or gear.

“This truck combines many of the technology-forward features our customers love in our electric vehicle lineup, at a more accessible price.”
Marin Gjaja, chief operating officer, Ford Model e

“The F-150 Lightning Flash is a direct outcome of engaging with and learning from our customers," said Marin Gjaja, chief operating officer, Ford Model e. "This truck combines many of the technology-forward features our customers love in our electric vehicle lineup, at a more accessible price. With an EPA-estimated 320 miles of range, the Lighting Flash is another example of the speed at which we are adapting to grow our electric vehicle business.”

Our available hands-free highway driving technology, Ford BlueCruise,2 can help make driving less stressful and more enjoyable.

The F-150 Lightning Flash comes with version 1.2, which includes Lane Change Assist, allowing the driver to change lanes hands-free by tapping the turn signal once the path is clear, and In-Lane Repositioning to help keep the vehicle in its lane while subtly shifting position away from vehicles in adjacent lanes.

It will also improve over time with software updates. And, with a new flexible option, customers can choose to activate BlueCruise at any point during their vehicle ownership journey — at purchase, annually, or even monthly — and use it when they need it. Customers can also try BlueCruise for 90 days from vehicle purchase during a complimentary trial.
